Here's some reading for you, Abyss Ritual 'zine from Colombia, concentrating on black metal and made by two guys called Tshoggua and Putrid. I think they did at least 2-3 issues more after this. Would be interesting to see some of the preceeding ones too, don't know if all were in English though. One of the guys did also another black metal 'zine called The Realm of Nachzehrer, which I should have an issue too but can't seem to find it! But I think it was actually quite similar to A.R. which was very underground sort of a 'zine as you might notice looking at the roster featured. This is definitely a big plus in my books, it's great to see more obscure acts featured! Well, and Mortiis. Yet again. The interviews are mostly quite interesting to read which naturally is another plus. Some of the articles are actually written by the editors while others are label bios reprinted so they vary a lot. Big blocks of typewriter text, typos and misspellings included may intimidate some while others will feel it refreshing. Recommended if you're looking for more ug content and do not care for fancy looks!

@japon:

This one isn't. :) Yeah, they tend to die out pretty soon if people don't download the items. I'm honestly too lazy to check the several hundred links here but reupload things people ask for as soon as possible. Was there a specific one you wanted?

Depositfiles isn't really my #1 choice due the links possibly dying quite easily but I've learned not to put all eggs in one basket after the fiascos with Mediafail and Megaupload earlier. And the links that are regularily used persist. Some people fail to understand how to use it (always Regular Download, obviously!) but that's really their own doing.
